Product Description Clearly separating the overwhelming array of medical-surgical nursing content into manageable sections as they are taught and tested, "Med-Surg Success" provides core medical-surgical concepts with related NCLEX-style questions. Like the NCLEX itself, the questions are presented at the application and analysis level, and address the nursing process, management, prioritizing, and medications: critical thinking and how it relates to test taking is emphasized throughout. Organized by body system and specific diseases, "Med-Surg Success" builds on the successful skills and strategies that have already helped thousands of students in Fundamentals Success and Test Success. The disorders chapters provide practice questions focused on the disease process and a comprehensive exam that includes the processes covered in the practice questions along with other topics involving the system addressed. Other chapters similarly cover emergency, perioperative, and cultural nursing; alternative health care and end-of-life issues; and the last chapter before the comprehensive final exam includes questions and test-taking hints specific to pharmacology and the administration of medications. | ||

Good book..must read my comment!!!!!!!!! This book covers all the contents of whole body system's disorder. Also, from each body system, they itemize each disease..which is really good...But i think book contains little bit easy questions. I am 3rd semester nuring student and when i finish studying my text book for each exams, i do practice questions in book....I found that all questions are very easy for me....not very challenging.....So, the point is...if you are preparing for your NCLEX exams and you already finish your nursing school, this book is not for you...its better idea to spend money on NCLEX book then this one...Good Luck Studying!!! | ||
Saved me! This book got me through RN school. My grades went from "D" to "B", using the techniques in this book. I would have gotten better grades if I'd studied more, but I was working full-time while attending classes. This book was a lifesaver for me, and others in my class. I found this in my third semester, and wish I'd found it at the beginning of the program. | ||
Just what I needed This is just what I needed for studying. The school advisor actually recommends it. Helps you put all the pieces together. | ||
Great reference for Med-Surg Nursing This text is my best investment yet!!! Reading the questions, & understanding the rationales, help me pass my exams!! I would truly recommend this text for as reference guide for Med-Surg I & II nursing course. | ||
Med-Surg Success I think is a great book. Alot of the questions in this book was very similiar to the questions asked by my instructor. This book help w/application type questions. It is broken up in to systems, then disease, and can be used as a self-quiz while for each section being covered in class. | ||
